Bernie Sanders Vs Hillary Clinton

I love Bernie Sanders, so much. Despite the fact that he's older than Hillary, which a lot of people would typically take to mean he leans more right, he's the most left candidate out there. He's an amazing human being, and he has a lot of great ideas for this country that can make it great again. Free community college is one of them. Decreasing taxes on the poor is another. If they can't pay for themselves, why should they have to pay for others along with it? He's a great economic candidate, and I personally only think my future in the United States is secure with him in the White House.

Socially, he's been fighting for POC and LGBT rights since the 60's, when Hillary Clinton was opposing them at the same time. And Sanders has made it clear he doesn't intend to run his campaign by tearing down other candidates, but by building himself up.

Out of the two, I'd pick Bernie Sanders over Hillary. I simply do not trust her. She did a piss poor job as a Secretary of Defense in my opinion, and the scandal with the server was a facepalm moment. She wasn't exactly squeaky clean either before and while Bill Clinton was in office. The only reason she really has any pull is because her husband was a former president and his scandal would give her some pity votes for the Democratic nomination. The fact that she got beaten out by nobody Obama was surprising in 2008. While we do deserve a woman president in the future, don't let Hillary be that choice.

Sanders on the other hand is pretty okay from what I can tell. His age though will be a target if he wins the nomination though. He'd be 77 after his first term if elected. That's pretty old. It may turn away many voters that would have voted for him. Let's hope he picks a great Vice President. Hillary herself would be the best choice if nominated as it would pick up any Democratic voters who may jump ship to Trump/other Republican.

 

Clinton was SecState, not SecDef. She was still crappy, though and so was Robert Gates as SecDef. Considering Hillary's record lately, I'm wondering how she's still running. I'd much rather have Sanders to her, though that isn't saying much
